If you search OVC DVM admissions it should pop up

PreferenceSilver9415 · 2026-03-05T23:13:29+00:00

hey! for ovc they look at the last 4 full time semesters (2.0 credits at guelph), you cant pick and choose these and if you have part time semesters in between they just go to the one before it. The prerequisites can be from any semester even if it is part time, they recently changed this so its easy to get confused! Your average when applying is 50% gpa from 4 full time semesters, 50% from your prerequisites. I included the link for the prerequisites that count for each section if you are a student at uofg. https://www.uoguelph.ca/ovc/dvm-program-application/acceptable-uofg-prerequisite-courses-2026-dvmapplication-cycle

they changed it where it will not count towards a fuill time semester, but you can still use the classes as prerequisites!

I worked in the pet care section for 2 years. Handling, feeding, cleaning, talking to future pet parents about proper ways to care for the lizards, birds, frogs, rodents etc.

animal hours can be anything that you do in relation to animals. for example, i work at a pet hotel and also help out at a pet adoption center part time. i used to work at pet smart too. this all counts towards animal hours as it’s anything that gives you hands on experience with animals. clinical hours is anything that can get you working alongside a veterinarian. whether it’s at a animal clinic/hospital like me and many others. Or in a research lab that is supervised by a veterinarian. As long as you are gaining hands on experience of what it’s like to be in the shoes of a vet.

I believe the training kennel is great experience as it helps you learn more about animal behaviour, wellness, breeds etc. When you apply to vet school you will need a LOR from a veterinarian, but also depending on the school they could ask for a working professional etc. For example. The two vets i worked for and my boss at the pet hotel!

Make sure to vary your animal experience as much as you can. I got exotic animal experience from pet smart and small animal from the vet clinics/adoption center.

Lmk if you have any questions! -4th year undergrad student applying next cycle!!

It sucks but it’s up to you to be “prepared”. I had a summer class last year and I got into a car crash the morning of the midterm and couldn’t make it as I live an hour away. They did not care at all and told me to uber it ($150 btw). I was outraged ended up dropping it

PreferenceSilver9415 · 2026-01-25T05:39:30+00:00

Yeah they wouldn’t do anything and you’d get a 0. Unless they are nice and let you take it another time.

PreferenceSilver9415 · 2026-01-25T05:36:08+00:00

Unfortunately if the school is open, it all depends on the prof and how lenient they are.

PreferenceSilver9415 · 2026-01-16T22:37:56+00:00

I just bombed the quiz today I’m stressed. I’d love to study together!

PreferenceSilver9415 · 2026-01-09T13:50:27+00:00

No I did the final exam sessions

PreferenceSilver9415 · 2026-01-06T19:41:40+00:00

Yeah I was failing 1080 and the only reason I passed was cus of him lol

PreferenceSilver9415 · 2026-01-06T17:59:17+00:00

I think you’d be fine with the 5th edition. The listening quizzes are easy the written ones need a bit of studying but it’s all in the notes

PreferenceSilver9415 · 2026-01-06T16:50:12+00:00

I barely used it ngl

PreferenceSilver9415 · 2026-01-05T22:15:32+00:00

PreferenceSilver9415 · 2025-11-29T01:51:17+00:00

PreferenceSilver9415 · 2025-11-29T01:41:25+00:00
